WFLA-TV (Tampa, Fla.) "exposed the mistreatment of foster and shelter children by Florida's Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services. Despite state denials (the station) revealed the state ignored the legal rights of abused and neglected children."

A follow-up investigation revealed state workers denied children services, stole from taxpayers and blatantly broke the law."
